Very Kewl Apps

Do you use text documents frequently? Be sure and check out Google's Documents Tour. This application (Google Docs not the tour) is most handy to someone that pushes text, .pdf, flow charts, and like material up and down via internet. Really nice work on Google's part. Definitely add the Drawings Extension. Also, you can take a look at many more extensions at their Official extensions site. Google Docs is a great way to collaborate, edit others, etc., while on the web. And it's FREE!

There is one more important application. You may have ignored the above because most of your documents are created in Word, Excel, Powerpoint or other Microsoft Office programs. Easy enough to keep using this great office suite and utilize the above applications. Just download Offisync. It will interface Office and Google Docs plus several more Google applications. Downloaded it and installed in a snap. Nice tool for the busy Office user. Guess what? It's FREE too!

As usual, YOU download to your computer. If something monks up don't fuss. These tools are used at the beach house and there have been no problems. Read the instructions on how to download and install. They are there for a reason.
